Winnitron/Winnipeg Game Jam 2015

Off the success of the 2014 Winnipeg Game Jam as well as the Ludum Dare 32 local game jam the 2015 Winnipeg Game Jam was held on Thursday, May 28th to Sunday, May 31st. In conjunction with the Winnitron Ressurrection Jam: Halifax being held in Halifax, Nova Scoatia. The themes were "Land & Sea" and "Resurrection". "Land & Sea" because Winnipeg is landlocked and Halifax is a coastal city, and "Resurrection" because the Winnitron was being revived from the dead. Listed below, are most of the participants including links to their games.
